I get a "Page cannot be displayed" message. But I got there anyway by using Google cache, and oddly enough, the internal links work: <http://www.geocities.com/descubralia/descubralia.html>. So, looks like you have created a true alternate history language, with fictional derivation from Spanish worked out into details, and all. Nice! I quite like your "derogatory you". Is that a feature that exists also in certain natlangs? As far as I can see, there's quite some palatalisation in the language. I'd like to see some more texts in Descubral�a. Oh, and by all means create a profile for it on Langmaker.com! > -Jul�a Maripos� (my descubral�an alter-ego) A very inspiring name!
